Both our
WordPress Image Optimization plugin and our image optimization tools allow you to backup your files.
ShortPixel Image Optimizer allows you to restore them either individually or in bulk from the WordPress admin interface, as long as you did not disable the “Backup” option on the settings page (which is enabled by default).
Restore all your images
You can bulk restore all your images from Settings > ShortPixel > Tools. There you will see a big red button “Bulk Restore”. On the right side of the page you should see the button “Bulk Restore Images”.
If you are using an old version of ShortPixel (v4.22.10 or lower), you can bulk restore all your images from Media > Bulk ShortPixel
. On the right side of the page you should see the button “Bulk Restore Images“.
Restore a single image
If you want to restore individual images, then
- Go to your Media Library
- Make sure you are in List View
- Look for your image and on the right side you should have a hamburger button. Click it and you will find the option “Restore backup“. If you don’t find the hamburger button, it means you don’t have a backup for that image.
